'Sexist' gorilla sent for therapy

'Sexist' gorilla sent for therapy

A gorilla is being sent for therapy because of his ''sexist'' attitude.

Patrick is being transported from Dallas Zoo to Riverbanks Zoo in South Carolina for treatment after failing to strike up a good relationship with any females in more than 18 years in Dallas.

Dallas Zoo spokeswoman Laurie Holloway said: ''It's not like we haven't tried, he's been here for 18 years.

''He's beautiful and smart and everyone loves him. We're really sad to see him go but it's for the best for the zoo and for Patrick.''

Patrick didn't get on well with the zoo's latest recruit, break-dancing gorilla Zola, and he also once bit a female gorilla.
